Last time Labour had a decent leader was Harold Wilson. The army planned two coups against him. It's a fucking miracle how close Corbyn came to winning given the press barons and internal party sabotage.

Not after the first time he tried led to increased support for Corbyn, no.
I'm not that in touch with UK politics
